Only a few months after the horrific battle of geonosis, which marked the beginning of the Clone Wars, General Luminara Unduli and her apprentice, Commander Barriss Offee were sent to the Hellish mountain world of Nadiem, where they were forced to evacuate the civillian population from an incoming separatist invasion. During the intense evacuation however, Barriss Offee was forced to do something incredibly brave to save the lives of her men and herself.
The story begins inside of the treacherous Threadneedle Canyon, on the rocky world of Nadiem, where Republic High Command has deployed General Luminara Unduli and her Padawan, Barriss Offee to ensure the safety of the local citizens.
Luminara’s ARC Trooper Commander, who unfortunately doesn’t have a name, begins to scout out the interior of the tall canyon, before he spots a single file advancing line of Separatist battle droid. Since this awesome ARC Commander doesn’t have a name, let me know down below what you think he should be called after you finish the story!
As soon as he makes this dangerous observation, he immediately orders his men to fall back to the next marker, before marching back to their General, Luminara. While on the rigorous trek back to the main village of Nadiem, Red Commander begins a transmission with Master Luminara, informing her that the droid army is rapidly advancing and that if they continue on at their break-neck speed, they will reach the village in less than one hour. Luminara is slightly concerned for the safety of the citizens inside the village, but she brushes this off and instructs Red Commander to continue as ordered.
As Luminara ends the transmission, Barriss Offee walks up to her with great concern on her face, and asks Luminara, “worried about the battle Master?”. Of course, as we know from Lumianra’s cold and calculated personality, she doesn’t let her internal fear or worry slip out through her expressions, telling Barriss that she has extreme confidence in her Clone Soldiers.
As the evacuation operation continues, Luminara moves into the centre of the Village and asks Blue Lieutenant how the evacuation operation is proceeding. Blue Lieutenant reluctantly tells his general that things are going well, but moving very slowly. He tells Luminara that the reason for this ridiculously slow-moving evacuation is because most of the civilians are being extremely greedy and trying to bring their personal belongings with them, and even some farm animals and pets. With limited space on board the evacuation vessels and even more limited time, Luminara comes up with a plan to get things moving along much more quickly, so that the separatists aren’t able to surround the villiagne and decimate everyone inside.
Master Luminara immediately calls everyone in the village for attention, bringing them together to listen to her very important announcement. With great caution and care in her words, Luminara delicately tells the citizens of the village that her and her men are doing absolutely everything they can to bring everyone to safety, but simply cannot fit their personal belongings. She delivers the news that nobody in the village wants her, but is absolutely necessary for their own survival.
As soon as she finishes her sentence, Luminara is met with extreme anger and disdain from the villagers, who call out to her and begin shouting reasons why they don’t want to leave their belongings behind.
One local farmer even walks up to Luminara and asks to bring his Eopi on board, but she coldly and calmly dismantles the man, telling him that the animal will require the space of three people, before asking him the brutal question “Which of your neighbours do you suggest we deny passage?”. The farmer of course doesn’t know how to respond to Luminara’s destruction of his argument, leading the farmer to release the animal far into the arid landscape of the planet. Let me know down below how you feel about citizens being separated from their pets.
Moments later however, a stern, angry look washes over Luminara’s face, as she notices a very suspicious man. Luminara uses her methodical thinking to realize that there is absolutely no way that this tiny village produces enough food every month to make a man that fat. Because of this, she rips her lightsaber off of her hilt in an instant, igniting the bright green blade, before viciously slashing the man in two.
